Finland - Thrash metal purveyors Megadeth kicked off another ambitious world tour in Finland in February, and once again, Dave Mustaine and the band were relying on equipment from EV.

Dave Mustaine and bassist James Lomenzo are longtime users and endorsers of EV microphone products. From the band's employment of EV's RE-1 dual guitar/bass wireless systems on the past two world tours to their recent upgrade to EV's latest offering, the REV, in mid-2007, the band has come to rely on EV, says the company. The EV N/D967 vocal microphone has also become a mainstay for its high gain-before-feedback, while the RE27N/D is the microphone of choice for James Lomenzo's bass.
